Customer Rating:      Summary: Really easy to use. Comment: I know very little about computers - email, videogames, internet, that's about it - but needed one to manage my music and photos. This worked basically straight out of the box with very little messing about - screen prompts guide you through everything - and has been even simpler to run day-to-day. All my peripherals plug straight into the USBs on the back, the inbuilt speaker plays my music loud enough for the study, it runs quietly and looks pretty cool! It takes up so little space too, which is good in a small house.
I'd recommend this if you don't really have any computer knowledge and just want to get on with doing stuff without worrying about it crashing and whatnot. I'll never go back to a PC!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Quiet but yet Fast!! Comment: This is my first mac and crikey is it good!!
I switched from pc to the mac in hope of finding a computer that doesnt crash all the time and isnt thirsty for 2-3gb of RAM like vista.
The mac is so quiet you have to look at the light on the front to see if its on, even if your going through the hard drive you cannot hear it.
In a minute or two from switch on, the mac is fully useable ready to surf the web, create a movie, edit photos, create or design a website, manage and make music etc and all this is included ,and not as a pricey add-ons!!
The mac mini is perfect for anything especally media, but dont buy this mac for gaming, if you want good gaming on a mac buy an imac, a macbook or a mac pro.
I use an elgato eyeTV for DTT which is a freeview tv tuner for the mac which is a perfect companion!
I bought mine from the apple website for £460 including the Apple wireless keyboard and mighty mouse!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Comment: This is my first mac.
I had had enough of windows so i got one of these and its great fast more fun to use and dostent crash. Its quite to. Also you can get this on the apple web site for 399 insted of 528.
